I haven’t posted anything in a while, but a lot has happened.
- I lost my job due to a mass layoff, the timing sucked so much, but I have some runway from the severance package, so it’s not all bad.
- I got therapy after all, and it helps a bit… but I also think I need a different therapist.
- I came out to my close friend groups, and they have been very supportive.
- Voice training has been going well, I’ve made some crazy progress in only 2 months, and I have a pretty dark/raspy voice.
- Getting called she/her and my girl name (that I chose), still feels weird, giving me doubts about it all.
- Still super excited for HRT tomorrow, so… lol at the doubts.
Anyways thanks for reading all this.
Sorry about your job, but congrats on getting on HRT and coming out to your friends!
Also yeah, my new name felt very weird for a while, but it feels much more correct now. I’m sure yours will too <3
Thanks.
It’s good to know I’m not the only one who felt initially weird about the new pronouns and name.
